Do you only get 60 – 75% of a timed test done before the call “Time is Up. Put your pencils down.” ?
Do you over-analyze the questions? Do you daydream while taking the test?

If you are taking the Graduate Record Examination(GRE), Graduate Management Admission Test (GMAT), Law School Admission Test (LSAT), the Medical College Admission Test (MCAT), or any of the other tests needed for admission to a special vocational program, you may have ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder). In children the hyperactivity is prominent, but in young adults it is more common to read and re-read a question over and over to be sure you are understanding it.

Adult ADHD is more common than statistics show. Many people have it and don’t know it. If you are diagnosed properly you can benefit from an evaluation for special accommodations because:

You can get a prescription to help you focus, and /or

You can get an allowance for up to 50% more time to complete the exam

If you get into grad school, this diagnosis can hinder your chances on all tests taken while in graduate school. Having the extra time to complete tests can make the difference between getting the career you have always wanted and failing.

Our Adult ADHD evaluations are based on your past experience and a standardized questionnaire that measures your problems in this area.

If you meet the criteria, we can provide a letter from a board certified doctor who has certified which can be used to get a prescription or the accommodations you need to overcome this problem.

If your problems turns out to be more likely from dyslexia or another learning disorder, a different test can be done that can also result in testing accommodations.
